Chicago’s South Side will get a squeaky-clean manufacturing plant. Green cleaning products firm Method plans to build a factory that it will submit for certification as Platinum by the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) program. To open in 2015, the 100-worker plant will feature a refurbished wind turbine and solar panels to provide approximately half its electricity needs.
